There is no universally accepted standard protocol for surveillance of patients with clinical stage I Non Seminomatous Germ Cell Tumors (CS I NSGCT). Prospective studies to compare different follow-up policies have not been performed, even though a great deal of time and resources is spent in surveillance. In this study, we constructed a Markov model to evaluate the impact of different follow-up strategies on disease-specific mortality (DSM) and life expectancy (LE) of patients with CS I NSGCT.
